Lsof supports the recognition of AFS files for these dialects
(and AFS versions):
AIX 4.1.4 (AFS 3.4a)
HP-UX 9.0.5 (AFS 3.4a)
Linux 1.2.13 (AFS 3.3)
Solaris 2.[56] (AFS 3.4a)
It may recognize AFS files on other versions of these dialects,
but has not been tested there. Depending on how AFS is
implemented, lsof may recognize AFS files in other dialects, or
may have difficulties recognizing AFS files in the supported
dialects.
Lsof may have trouble identifying all aspects of AFS files in
supported dialects when AFS kernel support is implemented via
dynamic modules whose addresses do not appear in the kernel's
variable name list. In that case, lsof may have to guess at the
identity of AFS files, and might not be able to obtain volume
information from the kernel that is needed for calculating AFS
volume node numbers. When lsof can't compute volume node
numbers, it reports blank in the NODE column.
The -A A option is available in some dialect implementations of
lsof for specifying the name list file where dynamic module
kernel addresses may be found. When this option is available, it
will be listed in the lsof help output, presented in response to
the -h or -?
See the lsof FAQ (The FAQ section gives its location.) for more
information about dynamic modules, their symbols, and how they
affect lsof options.
Because AFS path lookups don't seem to participate in the
kernel's name cache operations, lsof can't identify path name
components for AFS files.
